suprise!!!


"ELLIOT!" I squealed as I ran to give the scruffy haired boy a breath-stopping hug.

"Hello Darling, missed me?" Elliot greeted as he stepped into the manor wearing a very luxurus outfit.

"No." I said playing my excitement off cooley, "It's only been a week since winter break started." I added

He giggled and I giggled with him.

I grabbed his hand and dragged him away from the entrance on my manor towards the library in my house.

"Where are you taking me?"

"The library"

He stopped in his tracks "I don't read Sylvia"

"I saw you reading earlier this year"

"I lied" He confessed

"And why would you do that"

"Because I thought you would like me if I read like you do"

"Oh, you think I like you? Well, you must be terribly mistaken, Im friends with a boy my age who actually reads" I joked.

He scoffed as I pulled him into the library where there was a wizard's chess set up ready for us to play.

"Ready to get destroyed" Elliot boasted

"You wish".

We began the game by Elliot doing his first play, the thing about Elliot when playing wizard's chess is he is so predictable, I always know his play before he even does it. Often he just does the same play when he knows he's going to lose.

"Merlins beard Via"

I chuckled as I captured his queen "Checkmate" a smirk grew on my lips and a frown grew on his.

"How the hell are you so good at this bloody game?" Elliot wined.

I chuckled at him "Common, you want some lunch?".

"Im starved".

"Popsy!" I called and at the sound of my voice, a small house elf appeared in front of us. "Yes, Miss Sylvia?".

"Could you please prepare, Elliot and I some lunch?"

"Of course" Was the last thing Popsy said as she disappeared into thin air.

"Elliot, Darling it's lovely seeing you again" My mother greeted as she walked into the library where we had just finished playing wizards chess.

"Hello, Mrs. Rosewood" Elliot greeted. "Very lovely seeing you again"

"You too, Im hoping Sylvia has shown you to your room for the night?"

"No she hasen-"

"But I'm about too, Popsy is just making lunch" I interrupted

My mother nodded and walked out.

"I didn't know I was staying the night" Elliot informed me.
